Title: -w or -textOnly %c usage in the ExifTool API?
Post by: Mombo on August 13, 2024, 05:34:57 PM

I'm writing a Perl script using your fabulous ExifTool and I'm having an issue with duplicate file names. How can I get the -w %c option in the Perl library Image::ExifTool API?

Thanks in advance.

This option is handled entirely by the "exiftool" script, and not the API. You'll have to check for existence of the output file yourself, and increment a number in the file name until you find one that doesn't exist.
